Do you somehow think you are my moral superior because you "don't support it ever. ever. fucking ever.".
I can tell you one thing, your rude way of discussing the issue surely is not convincing me to look at it from a different point of view.
So let me get this straight, you are not necessarily against ending someone's life, you just don't want the government to have the decision making authority?
